Read eBook Entitled 'Women Shaping Global Economic Governance'

Women Shaping Global Economic Governance is a new eBook that brings together contributions on how to shape our economies from major policymakers and thought leaders around the globe.

This book, written completely by females, is not about women.

It is written by females to encourage everyone to contribute to shaping economic governance at a moment when the world is affected by a digital, environmental and social revolution, including the 50 percent of the worldwide population constituting females.

The essays and observations demonstrate women are analyzing economic governance difficulties and formulating concrete ideas on how to navigate this turbulent period.

The development of three tectonic shifts is confronted by economic governance: a digital revolution, an economic revolution, and a social revolution.

It is a new book from CEPR, the International Trade Center and the European University Institute that gathers perspectives from 28 women policymakers and thinkers on how to shape a global governance structure capable of handling those changes and rebuilding the confidence that voters in many nations seem to have lost.
